When I looked into it some time ago, what tripped me up was that it seemed that you needed to deploy it using Docker. Otherwise, you'd have quite an involving set up process: install Ruby, Rails, then a database. Then you'd probably want to figure out a set up to enable https + SSL. I had it running locally and was quite impressed by it, but wasn't ready to go the full Dockerized route on a VPS at that time. Maybe now I would.. just need to find the time.
Personally, I think a project like Huginn would have more success if the code was in GoLang (easier to deploy) or Python (more popular language = people more willing to set it up) and used SqlLite for the backend. And if it had SSL/https baked in, out of the box. For comparison purposes, I distinctly remember how much I appreciated that Nextcloud had it baked in. So I ran NC very happily for quite a while and skipped out on Huginn.
